Activities were good, I would like to have 2 family sessions. Just found that in day 2 we were able to open more and would have liked more family therapy. Food was great. Emotional couple of days which is exhausting, thank you staff.

Coming from a former client that spent 2 months there and is now 3 months out, Embark truly was amazing. Sure, there were some ups and downs, but that comes with anywhere you go. Most of the staff there were incredibly nice and supportive, and I built bonds with them. I also throughly enjoyed therapy there, since my therapist (Casey) was easy to connect with and seen straight through my tough shell that only 1 other therapist (out of many) was able to see through. He worked with me incredibly, guiding me through my intense emotions and helping me learn new skills that I hadn t learned before. The programming there was amazing, allowing for flexibility depending on each client. The only issue I had while at Embark was the drama, but that also comes with my decisions that I made, so I don t hold it against them. As long as you focus on yourself, everything is pretty good there. I would honestly send my own kid, in the future, here. I really enjoyed the process in which everyone worked with you, and it improved my mental health alot. Truest thank you s to Embark!!

Levels of Care

Partial Hospitalization Program

Designed for individuals who don't require 24/7 monitoring, a partial hospitalization program (PHP) provides intensive-level treatment while allowing you to stay at home. PHP treatment typically requires a commitment of at least 20 hours of treatment per week for an average duration of 90 days. Services commonly offered in PHP include medication management and evidence-based therapies, such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT). Insurance coverage for PHP treatment may vary depending on your provider.

Treatments

Specialized dual-diagnosis addiction treatment programs in Missouri include inpatient residential rehab, outpatient, intensive outpatient, detox, and partial hospitalization programs. Offering a full continuum of care, their clinicians have the expertise to treat individuals with co-occurring substance use disorder and mental health conditions at the same time. The benefits of dual-diagnosis treatment are enhanced recovery outcomes, improved overall health and well-being, and it equips individuals with the information and skills required to sustain long-term sobriety.

Inpatient treatment provides mental health services with residency in the rehab facility for the duration of treatment. During treatment, you'll likely participate in evidence-based therapies like cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), medication management, and skill development – all under the guidance of an expert mental health therapist. By focusing on both aspects of your mental health and treating your addiction, you'll gain vital skills to cope with cravings, manage stress, and prevent relapse. Family therapy or mindfulness training may also be available, which helps to improve mental health.

Clinical Services

The goal of cognitive behavioral therapy in Missouri is to help clients change their thinking and behavioral patterns. Strategies of treatment include role playing, facing fears, and calming techniques.

Our son was here for about 75 days. The facilities are beautiful and very well maintained. The primary therapist and directors are very caring and worked exceptional hard with our son. Our son was not successful in this program but it was no fault of Embark. I think he learned many new skills to cope with life and was exposed to a very healthy group of meaningful individuals. He created some strong bonds with many of the staff. I was disappointed wirh some of the night staff and the difficulty with messages being relayed to our son or calls being returned but that had nothing to do with our sons treatment just made the process more frustrating. I also wish the equine therapy was more than 3 days but it did happen and my son enjoyed it. I would recommend this facility for children in emotional distress after all other counseling , therapies, and other treatments have failed. I wish my son could return for another month or two, as I think he is ready to do things differently- it takes what it takes for all children, but am grateful for Kayla, Kenneth, Casey, and a few others as that poured lots of love into our son

Joe, thank you for sharing your experience. We're glad to hear about the positive impact on your son. Your feedback is valuable, and we appreciate your recommendations. We also greatly appreciate you taking the time to voice your concerns and would love the opportunity to chat further about how we can improve our communication and the experience for both our students and their families. If you'll reach out to our executive director at michele.surber@embarkbh.com we would love to discuss the communication issues further.

My family is so very grateful to Embark in Independence for helping our daughter with her substance abuse issues and depression. She's learned coping skills from a wonderful and caring staff. She's made friends that she's maintained contact and accountability with. I've heard and seen posts she's left on her social media about how much she appreciates the help she's received from EBH. I couldn't recommend them highly enough.

Hello Sidney, At Embark, we are dedicated to helping teens overcome mental health challenges. We aim to make the healing process as seamless and supportive as possible. Thank you for sharing your positive experience with us! We're so glad to hear that your daughter has found support and learned valuable skills with our team.

Words can’t explain how grateful I am for Embark in Independence Missouri. I recently celebrated my one year of being home from there and I still look back at Embark as the place that changed my life. Before being admitted, my family and I were in shambles. I constantly did things that hurt me and my family and there was a major divide between us. I was extremely depressed and I didn’t think I would make it past 18. But here i am a year and a half later, and adult, and doing better than ever. My family and I have an amazing, trusting relationship now. Every single staff member, supervisor, therapist, etc. uniquely helped shape me into the person I am today. I’m so thankful for all the patience and support they poured into me. I will never stop thanking them and giving them the credit for challenging me and helping my mindset shift. for all the kids who are planning to attend or just got out, i’m proud of you. it’s so hard and there’s no going around that. it’s the hardest thing my family and i have done. but it’s worth it. it’s worth it to be happy and content. it’s going to be difficult to be away from your family and friends. and it’s going to be difficult to want to work with the program and to participate. ITS GOING TO GET WORSE BEFORE IT GETS BETTER. even after you get out. i learned that the hard way. but you have to trust the process and you have to want to get better. it takes time but I promise your soul will be at peace soon. When I started at embark, I truly didn’t know who I wanted to be or what I wanted to do but now I have found my calling. Embark helped me come into my faith as well as find my career path, and that is to help kids the same way I was helped and eventually become a therapist. The friends I’ve made there will be my lifelong friends because i don’t get to share such a special time of my life with anyone else. i still talk to most of them to this day. you will meet your family there. Thank you embark for believing in me and my family. i know i wasn’t an easy kid but i sure did make that place fun 😁😁😁

Eunice Kinnison

My daughter was here for 100 days during the winter. I could never say enough about the staff. Each staff member truly has their own unique gift to offer and when combined have the ability to change lives. Embark gave me the greatest blessing I could hope for. I dropped off a resentful child but reconnected and brought home a daughter. We still have problems. It's not a 100% cure all but the days there changed us both in ways I will forever be grateful for. If you're researching, just considering, or looking for help, take the step and make the call. I hope they can transform your lives as well.
